5 Equation of State

In this section we discuss the Equation of State (EoS) of the neutron star crust. Three different cases will be considered: cold catalyzed matter in Section 5.1, accreted crust matter in Section 5.2 assuming the formation scenario described in Section 4, and hot dense matter in supernova cores in Section 5.4.

 5.1 Ground state crust
 5.2 Accreted crust
 5.3 Effect of magnetic fields on the EoS
 5.4 Supernova core at subnuclear density
